The Brilliant Nuptials at Westminster
Last Night Of Mr.. Wymond

One Of The Most Regal Wedding Affairs
~ Which Has Ever Agitated So
Il ciety in Minneapolis.
J, Marriage Bells Sounding All Over the
City---The Andrews-Fenny
Wedding Scene
At the Church Of the Redeemer---A
Wedding in North and One in
Northwest Minneapolis.

OF the many brilliant weddings that
have occurred in Minneapolis, that of
Lasts night, by which Josiah Chambers
. Wymond and Mary Van Dyke Clerihew
were made man and wife, was doubtless
the most brilliant and the most beauti-
full. Society had been pleasantly agi-
tated regarding the event for weeks
past, and it is safe to say that the most
extraordinary expectations were more
than realized. The great popularity of
the bride, the favorable Impression
made by the groom during his short res
idence in the city and the high social
position of the families interested fully
warranted the very general concern of
society in last nights nuptialS. West
Minister church was filled with the
friends of the happy couple. The au-
dience was very brilliant one, an I'M
usual number Of leading society people
with one another in the elegance of
their tOilettes. The decorations con-
sisted simply of palms, ferns and Ber-
muda lilies, which covered the rostrum
in tropical luXurience. The upright
chandeliers were heavily feStooned in
smilaX, and garlandS of the same beau
tiful green screened the rail. The
three front rows of seats had been re-
moved to make room for the bridal
party, and the altar space, with the
aisles, was all carpeted with white.
Previous to the entrance of the bridal
party the eight ushers were busted in
seating the audience, which quite filled
the church. Shortly after o'clock Prof.
Morse began the wedding march from
Lohengren, and to the exquisite music
the wedding party entered in the follow
ing order:

The CzoAiers that do as they adcertise

From the Bonneville, Missouri, Adrertiser
of December 81 we take the following no.
tice Of the death of Mrs. John w. Cham
berlaiu, formerly of this county:
cone of the saddest accidents that has
ever happened in this county occurred near
Billingsville, last Monday morning. Mrs.
Eliza Chamberlain, living in that neighbOr-
hood, taking some hot Goals, went into her
greenhouse about IL o'clock with the inten-
ton of making fire for the protection OF
the flowers. In doing so her clothes be-
came ignited and she was soon enveloped
with the flames. Her screams brought
prompt assistance and though the fire was
quickly extinguished, the unfortunate lady
was so severely burned that her death en-
sued the next morning. Mrs. Chamberlain
was d w0rthy and esteemed lady, the widow
of John W Chamberlain. She was born
in 1916. and came to Missouri in 1868. n
member of the Baptist church for forty
years. she was a deyout and consistent
Christian. Deceased leaves four daughters
and four sons to mourn the death of an af-
fectionate mother 1t is noted as a curious
fact that this is the fourth time in ten years
in which Mrs c. was badly burned. Also
strange is it that a week previous to her
death she selected four pail bearers: Alex.
Macarthur, G.. W Helmreich, p. l.. Hurt
and William Risler."

As the noon B. & o. train passed the Lee

Mr. James Miller, young farmer Lying
on the farm of Mrs. Rebecca Hunter, and
Mr.. James Campbell, a blacksmith, living
near Wageleys shop several miles from
town attempted to cross the railroad in a
sleigh. Both were killed and their bodies
frightfully mutilated. We are informed
that they had Just been preceded by a sleigh
occupied by Messrs. Jno Quick, and --
Miller. brother of the deceased. These
men had made the crossing safely and sig
nailed Miller and Campbell to stop. The
deceased were driving rapidly and it is pre-
sumed they did not see the signal nor hear
the train.
